Chapter 574 Take it from the people and use it for the people

"How does the Lord say this? If I really feel sad, it is just to mourn his misfortune and not to fight. If such a person who regards the laws of the Qin Dynasty again appears in Meng Yi's clan, I, as the Grand Marshal, will definitely abdicate and give way to the wise!"

Meng Yi's words were really loud. He was the first person in the Qin Dynasty. If he really abdicated and gave way to the wise, it would only mean that the banner of the old Qin nobles had fallen. When the people below heard this, they all took a breath.

"What is the Taiwei saying? What Han Xin did this time is not just a normal implementation in accordance with the Qin laws. Although people are members of the Meng family, the Meng family is so vast. The Taiwei still has to work hard for the court of our Qin Dynasty. Of course, sometimes he will not take good care of the Meng family and there is no need to blame himself. I will not have any opinions about the Meng family because of this!"

Anyone with discerning eyes understood Ying Gao's words. In Ying Gao's eyes, Han Xin did nothing wrong with this matter. If they follow the Qin law, the descendants of your Meng family have violated the Qin law of the Qin law. Who can you blame?

It’s just that Ying Gao won’t pursue Meng Yi’s crime of being awkward in discipline. He should be damned, but he has nothing to do with you, Meng Yi. But to put it bluntly, this shit must be tied to the head of the Montessori clan, because it is difficult to give up between Meng Yi and the Montessori clan.

So, those who wanted to take this opportunity to frame Han Xin and achieve the goal of currying Meng Yi swallowed up what they had prepared, because they could see the situation in the Qin Dynasty very clearly. The nobles in Ying Gao's eyes, no matter how nobles you reach, have no privileges.

At this time, the matter came to an end in a silence. Then, Ying Gao began to introduce a series of policies he prepared last night, and these policies were basically related to Sun Yue and other five corporate agricultural supervisors.

It turned out that the time when Ying Gao returned happened to be a period of time after the people of Daqin had just gained it.

Although most places are positive, Ying Gao carefully studied the data obtained by Sun Yue and others, and found that in some places, it is likely that the seeds distributed by Daqin were reduced or the harvest was completely reduced. Although he did not know the exact amount of production cuts or the harvest was reduced or the harvest was completely reduced, Ying Gao knew that compensation for such people must be settled as soon as possible and then implemented.

So what Ying Gao introduced in the court today was his compensation plan for this part of the people. After briefly introducing it, Ying Gao glanced at the officials below and said, "I saw that many of you were eager to try it out before, obviously they all wanted to show their faces in front of me. Now I need to obey your opinions, so don't refuse again."

As a result, the guys who were eager to try suddenly all lowered their heads. Obviously, Ying Gao had already seen what they were thinking, but he had not directly exposed their faces.

When Ying Gao asked this, some guys who did want to say something before, but had nothing to do with Meng Yi's family's affairs stood up.

"Your Majesty, if you compensate those Guizhou leaders as you said, I wonder how much damage it will cause to the treasury of the Great Qin Dynasty?"

Indeed, if Ying Gao had all the food lost by the people who had suffered losses for some reasons was used to replenish them according to the method that Ying Gao had said before, it would be a big challenge for the Daqin Treasury that he had never had such a thing before, and the taxes remained unchanged and this expenditure had not been spent. Therefore, when this person thought of this, he listened seriously, but what he said made Ying Gao sound very angry.

"Then I ask you, what are the food stored in the treasury of Daqin?"

Because Ying Gao's expression was still very playful and he couldn't see any bad emotions, the person who asked the question did not realize how opposed Ying Gao was. He was the person who was responsible for the expenses of food, grass and other materials in the Great Qin Treasury. This was why Ying Gao immediately thought of the treasury after he asked this matter. Seeing that Ying Gao had something to ask, he thought he was the one who grasped the key point this time, but he organized a lot of language in his heart.

"The food and grass in the treasury were allocated from various counties and counties. The cost of the Xianyang City of Daqin and the surrounding areas was the large number of those victims, so it will definitely have a huge impact on the treasury of Daqin. I have to ask you to think about this matter twice and think about Xianyang City!"

At the end of the story, this guy showed his loyal and loyal look, as if he was trying to persuade Ying Gao to change his mind.

But this guy's words made Sun Yue, who was standing not far away next to him, were so angry that he was not very angry, because this proposal was finally proposed by Sun Yue, and Ying Gao was also hastily last night. In addition, Sun Yue was a woman, Ying Gao was embarrassed to summon her to Xianyang Palace in the middle of the night. In that case, if some interested people misunderstand it, Ying Gao's lifetime reputation would be completely gone.

After hearing this, Sun Yue's face turned red and she was almost about to stand up and refute. However, Ying Gaoyan saw this situation, naturally, she could not let a woman like Sun Yue stand up as cannon fodder. Although Sun Yue and the other five had been in the court of Daqin for a while, they were still much worse than these old fried dough sticks who had been immersed in the court for so long. If you just talk, you might not be able to beat these old guys.

"Then I ask you again, where do the food and grass in the Great Qin Treasury come from?"

The official in charge of the treasury still had the same tone and asked the same question. The official in charge of the treasury didn't think much about it and took a step forward slowly, as if this would bring him closer to his relationship with Ying Gao.

"Your Majesty, these food and grass are the tax surplus income of each county. It is transported to Xianyang City through the straight road and waterway of our Daqin. It is not easy to get it. You naturally cannot disperse it to the people so easily."

After he finished speaking, it seemed as if he had found another reason to persuade Ying Gao, his face was filled with satisfaction, but he didn't know that Ying Gao's heart was speechless at this time.

"I have a saying today. I want to teach you that the food and grass in this treasury will be taken from the people and used for the people. All of your words are unreasonable statements. Why did Chen Sheng and others rebel against Qin before I ascended the throne? At that time, the treasury of Qin was also very abundant, but what's the use? Didn't you ask me to take the army to wipe out those rebels? If these people had been filled before, why would this happen?"

"This... Master, I... I was confused for a moment!"

He didn't know that what he thought was perfect before would become worthless when Ying Gao was, and this reversal was something he had never expected at all.

But those words have been said before, and it is like splashed out of water. Even if he is willing to kneel on the ground and lick it back, it will not be able to lick it back in the short term, right? So he can only slap himself in the face incoherently, so that Ying Gao can forgive him.

"I am not a person who expels you from Xianyang Palace at a disagreement. You are an important member of the Qin Dynasty. Today, what I said before will be handed over to you. Your task is to cooperate with Sun Yue and other five other agricultural supervisors to transport the grain in the Qin Dynasty treasury to various counties and counties according to the requirements of the five of them, and distribute it to people who have indeed reduced production or lost their income due to our reasons or the weather. If there is a mistake in this matter, or if I hear any complaints about this matter, you will not appear in front of me again, do you understand?"

"Thank you, I must work together with the five agricultural supervisors in this matter and I will definitely do it well!"

What does it mean to have mountains and rivers and there is no way out, and there is another village in the dark. For this official of the Qin Dynasty, the current situation is that the treasury of the Qin Dynasty is Ying Gao, and he is not the master of the treasury. He is just a temporary guardian for others. The master has spoken. If you don’t hurry up and execute it, his life in the Qin Dynasty may really be over.

Sun Yue, who was already so angry that he almost jumped up, felt very comfortable when he saw this reversal, especially the sentence that Ying Gao said was taken from the people and used for the people. Although the nobles standing in the court may not be able to listen, Sun Yue, who was born and had been dealing with the Qianshou and had been doing things with the Qianshou for a while, knew the meaning of this sentence very well.

These grains were originally planted by the people with great effort, but after they were planted, almost half of them had to be handed over, and what was left was what he left. Now Ying Gao just wanted to distribute a small part of the grains he handed over to the people who could not survive. Let these aristocratic officials standing in the court refute this way, which shows that the aristocratic thoughts of the Qin Dynasty were still very strong.

But on the other hand, for the people of Daqin, if they feed them some food, they will be devoted to Daqin and Ying Gao. Not only those people who are about to starve to death, but those people who have harvested will not be worried about being afraid that they will not grow food in their fields every year. For Ying Gao, it is beneficial but not harmful, but a matter of buying horse bones for a thousand gold.

The person who stood up asked Ying Gao to make a statement, so naturally no one dared to say anything to refute this matter. Although Ying Gao did not treat this matter as a new policy, it was not much different from the new policy.

Ying Gao knew that those officials were not opposed to their own attempt to reduce the amount of food in the Qin treasury, but were opposed to Ying Gao taking the people of Qin seriously.

Every emperor has a balanced sway in his heart. If he puts all his weight on the nobles, the nobles will naturally live a comfortable life. But if he puts all his energy on the people, the weight of the nobles in his heart will definitely be lower and lower. This is what they feel unbearable in their hearts, so they desperately don’t want Ying Gao to be kind to the people.

Now, Ying Gao has clearly expressed his thoughts and attitudes many times. When he brought Sun Yue and five others from the imperial examination candidates to the court of Daqin, many nobles sneered at this matter.

But now, they all have to admire Ying Gao's foresight. When these five inconspicuous women who had never been noticed by them played a role, they found that things were no longer something they could control.

This order did not seem to have played a very important role in the Qin court, nor did it cause any major changes, nor did it be issued from the Xianyang Palace in the form of Qin rules. However, the impact of this incident was very great, and even Sun Yue and Ying Gao did not expect it.

It was late autumn, and in a village where the north wind whistled in the old place of Yan State, two children under ten were crouching in the house. The house was also airtight, making their clothes look extremely thin.

"Brother, why can parents come back? Can you cook some food for your younger sister? I'm hungry?"

The person who spoke was a little girl who was only five or six years old. She was cleaned up, but there was no blood on her pale face and body, cheekbones, collarbones, and bones that could be revealed in everything were all standing outside. She obviously had not had enough food, and she had not had enough meals, and it was more than one or two meals, not just one or two days.

At this time, she was lying weakly on a boy who was slightly older than her. Although the boy looked equally thin, his face was better than that of a girl. After hearing his sister's words, tears of bean size were already spinning in his eyes, but he still subconsciously hugged his sister tightly and whispered: "My father and mother have already gone to the county middle school to help. We will definitely bring back food today. Wait a little longer, and we won't be hungry if we wait!"

The little girl was obviously very innocent. She blinked her big eyes hard, looked at the brother in front of her, and waited for her parents' return with expectations.
